This note describes a technical overview of UXsim, an open source macro/mesoscopic traffic simulator in pure Python programming language. UXsim is based on Kinematic Wave model (more specifically, mesoscopic version of Newell's simplified…
We have added to the Chroma+ suite of stellar atmosphere and spectrum modelling codes the ability to synthesize the exo-planet transit lightcurve for planets of arbitrary size up to 10% of the host stellar radius, and arbitrary planetary…
Generative models trained on internet data have revolutionized how text, image, and video content can be created. Perhaps the next milestone for generative models is to simulate realistic experience in response to actions taken by humans,…
The light curve of an exoplanetary transit can be used to estimate the planetary radius and other parameters of interest. Because accurate parameter estimation is a non-analytic and computationally intensive problem, it is often useful to…
Universal quantum simulation may provide insights into those many-body systems that cannot be described classically, and that cannot be efficiently simulated with current technology. The Trotter formula, which decomposes a desired unitary…
Conventional approaches to simulating quantum many-body dynamics produce a single trajectory: if the Hamiltonian or the initial state is changed, the computation must be re-performed. Recent efforts toward foundation models have begun to…
As an important area in computer vision, object tracking has formed two separate communities that respectively study Single Object Tracking (SOT) and Multiple Object Tracking (MOT). However, current methods in one tracking scenario are not…
